Lots of trail breaking this afternoon. There was a snowshoe track on the Carriage road that continued past the Gunstock Mountain Trail. No one had been up the GMT so that is where the trail breaking began and continued all the way to the summit. Deep snow all the way to the top from yesterday's storm. No tracks on the Ridge Trail or the Brook Trail either. Some drifting along the Ridge Trail near the newly cut view point. Snowing pretty good on the summit and no views so I didn't hang around long. Some skiers up there today but not too busy. I returned in my same tracks so the trail is pretty well broken out now. Bring your snowshoes! |
